Welcome Vikings Fans to the second Edition of the weekend VikesGeist!

It’s time to hear from you, Vikings fans!

VikesGeist was originally created more than a decade ago by our founder Joe Johnson. In 2015, Joe created PurplePTSD to express his passion for the Vikings through his writing. Foremost among Joe’s priorities was being able to create an online arena for others to participate in a Vikings community, VikesGeist being one of his many initiatives. Although we lost Joe in 2021, his legacy lives on here at PurplePTSD.com!

Today we’ll be opening up the chat to a discussion of Free Agency Grades. You can check out how our writers grading the Vikings FA moves here: https://purpleptsd.com/2026/vikings/top_news/vikings-fa-grades-7-writers/

Some questions for your consideration, Vikings fans…

  1. The “Center” of Attention Is it a mistake to head into the draft with Center as a “must-fill” need?
  2. Value over Star Power:  Does the team look better on paper by spreading the wealth among “tier 2” contributors rather than one or two superstars?
  3. The QB situation: By bringing in a Pro Bowl-caliber veteran for pennies, has the front office officially signaled that the J.J. McCarthy era is on “pause” or perhaps over?
